Arrived at the same time Monica (Austin) arrived - really good to see her again. She investigated the sail size at Worldwinds. She reported that a 5.5 would be the perfect sail but we agonized because it seemed windier than that. She went back to Worldwinds and returned with the following "Don't even think about rigging a smaller sail" so she rigged a 5.5 and I rigged the 5.6 and it was the perfect sail for the conditions. Really fun runs south to Island #3. Sailed with a relativelly small crowd: T-Bob, Murphy, Fritz, Angela, Monica and about a dozen others. It was a beautiful and totally fun afternoon.
